Merged idea
This idea has been merged into another idea. To comment or vote on this idea, please visit CICSTS-I-1080 Specify (remote) Transid on Function Shipped Requests other than DPL.

Specify (remote) Transid on Function Shipped Requests other than DPL Merged

It is currently possible to specify the transaction-id under which a DPL request will be invoked in the remote region using the "Transid" remote attribute on the program definition.

This should be expanded to all function shippable remote requests, eg- files, TD Queues, TS Models, etc.

The has benefits for transaction accounting, particularly in the ability to provide more accurately targeted charge-back, as well as for transaction security and performance monitoring purposes.

Nb- I originally raised this as a FITS request in 2002 (!) and, as I understand it, it was being considered as a suggestion, but it went missing somewhere along the line. (I recently confirmed this with Mark Cocker and John Tilling, who had been aware of it in at that time.)

    Due to processing by IBM, this request was reassigned to have the following updated attributes:
    Brand - Servers and Systems Software
    Product family - Transaction Processing
    Product - CICS Transaction Server

    For recording keeping, the previous attributes were:
    Brand - WebSphere
    Product family - Transaction Processing
